<pre><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">The laboratory of Dr. Erika Eggers at the University of Arizona is seeking a highly motivated individual to work on NIH and NSF funded studies of the structure and function of retinal circuits in normal and diabetic mammalian retinas. Potential projects include determining how changes in retinal neuronal signaling and morphology contribute to visual deficits in early diabetes and determining how changes in synaptic signaling in the retina lead to increased visual acuity at bright light levels. The studies will utilize single-cell electrophysiology, immunohistochemistry, optogenetic activation and two-photon imaging.
